The Discover Guide provides teachers an interactive resource to use with middle school students to explore their interests, passions, abilities, and influences. From there, students will learn about careers that fit their lifestyle and personality—and how to get there. The Discover Guide also helps students develop an Education and Career Action Plan (ECAP) by the time they reach 8th grade.

Students attending middle schools that feed into our 5E high schools automatically receive a Discover Guide. All other partners, educators, students, and families can download the guide in English or Spanish. Partner middle schools can contact Middle School Services Manager Ann Connelly at ann.connelly@nau.edu to order guides or for more information.
